We all have someone or something we would rather just forget. Things fall apart. Love hurts. Dreams die. But when you summon Death Bear to your door, you can rest assured that help has come. At first you may be intimidated by his stature and color (7 feet tall with a hard, black bear head, black jumpsuit, and black boots), but absorbing the memories of others is a dark art, and Death Bear must present himself appropriately for this solemn duty. Death Bear will take things from you that trigger painful memories and stow them away in his cave where they will remain forever allowing you to move on with your life. Give him an ex's clothes, old photos, mementos, letters, etc. Death Bear is here to assist you in your time of tragedy, heartbreak, and loss. Let Death Bear help you, and absorb your pain into his cave.

I wish these crayons by Luxirare were more than a prototype - never again would children have their crayon snatched out of their hand whilst chewing on the end.....
Edible Crayons by Luxirare are made of real food like nuts, fruits, dried vegetables and seeds. Of course the crayons aren't planned by complimentary flavors, but tertiary colors. Yes, you can color with them and you can eat them as long as you don't mind combos like peas, green beans, dried kiwi and green Fruity Pebbles.

via WWD - Rodarte designers Kate and Laura Mulleavy will team up with Colette in October to create a monthlong retail space and gallery.
The duo will be offering a selection of their fall designs alongside objets d’art and some other favorite pieces they curated for the occasion. Located on Colette’s second floor, the gallery will be unveiled during Paris Fashion Week and remain open for the rest of that month. Kate Mulleavy said she and her sister jumped at Colette buyer Sarah Lerfel’s suggestion to create the store and gallery.
“Colette was one of the first stores to carry us, so we have a strong relationship with Sarah, who has…given us a lot of guidance,” Mulleavy said.
The store will offer many of the things the Mulleavys love, from CDs of their favorite music to DVDs of 25 or so of their favorite horror flicks, including “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” “Don’t Look Now,” “Dawn of the Dead,” “Rosemary’s Baby” and “Black Sunday.”
In addition to a selection of specially created Rodarte pieces like stuffed, knitted animals, the designers enlisted their mother to create limited edition jewelry for the Colette collaboration, and asked some of their friends and people whose work inspires them to design things. Among them are Love necklaces by Alexandra Grant, pillow cases by Miranda July, double sided duvet by David Shrigley, glitter taxidermy by Annakim Violette and books with covers hand-painted by Rebekah Miles, from “Charlotte’s Web” to a Kurt Cobain biography. The sisters collect these books and picked the ones to be sold at Colette.
At the gallery space, the designers selected American art works by the likes of Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth, Mari Estman, Elliott Hundley, Alexandra Grant, Karen Kilimnik, Ari Marcopoulous, Raymond Pettibon and Autumn de Wilde.
“Rodarte has always been so inspiring,” Lerfel said. “I’m fascinated by their world. We already gave them windows for their first season and I was impressed with the way they built them. So I’m happy to give them space at Colette to express more, to let them introduce their collection but also everything they like.”
Mulleavy said the project served as an opportunity “to let people inside of our minds. It’s almost as if you are in our studio.”
Colette will also exclusively sell Rodarte’s marbled ballet flats, which the duo created in collaboration with Repetto.
“Colette is such an amazing store because it is always changing and challenging the landscape, especially of retail,” Mulleavy said.
In 2 weeks we will be have the first shipment of the new D-Bros Memo Fruits (kudamemo). They are so amazing, beautiful and fresh as it takes stationery to an entirely new level.
The D-BROS brand, featuring products created by graphic designers, was launched in 1995 as the product brand of the ad production and graphic design firm Draft Co., Ltd. in Tokyo. Conceived to convey the pleasures of design, D_BROS aims to trigger a new movement with its line of whimsical stationery, interior accessories, textiles and other design-orientated product available in Japan and overseas.
Third Drawer Down was recently published in the National Newspaper in Abu Dhabi. The article was written by the very adorable and poetic Annemarie Kiely. Annemaire wrote the first major article about Third Drawer Down seven years ago.....oh, how time flies when you are having fun!
